Over the last few weeks my ethernet connection via the stb has been very intermittant. Sometimes going off for a few days or staying on for a few days. It says 'network cable disconnected'. To cut a long story short an engineer came out and checked everything out with his laptop. That worked fine so I assumed that there was something wrong with my network card. Went the shop and bought one, put it in, same problem.

Tried the usb adaptor and it connects (after registering again).

What can I do to sort out the ethernet connection? I've tried to reinstall the drivers with no luck. I have Win XP Home.
